The Yohe’s Lawncare & Landscaping truck, a 2017 Isuzu, was parked in front of The Episcopal Church of Bethesda-by-the-Sea while the workers ate their lunches, said the company’s owner, Brent Yohe.

When the workers went to eat close by, they left the keys in the truck’s cup holder. After only a few minutes, they heard the truck starting and saw a shirtless man, covered in tattoos, driving away, Yohe said.

The workers immediately notified police, who were able to locate the truck, with a large company logo on the side, within about 20 minutes, Yohe said.
